Currently not concerned about Virat and his shenanigans. When I was skipping his scene, they were showing fbs of him and Amruta.
I mean what are the writers smoking? Like you have mentioned above, I am not able to connect what they are showing currently to what they showed before. No wonder some people who were posting regularly (Resham, Bips to mention a few) have dropped off.
They have made a mess of a decent show. 
They could've taken time with the exposure of the ema. Was having a dm convo with someone on X while watching the first ep and both of us were guessing 'is it or is it not ema'. The confusion lasted 5 mins. That's bad. Could've kept that confusion way longer and exposed it when Ammu learns about it - even if it be in the first 'show day'. Would've been better too if the kids didnt behave as if their world is wonderful - made them look dumb when the exposé happened.
Too much reliance on functions was bad too and thats what they had mostly in the first 50 eps. One function after another. But Ammu was going strong so didnt mind it. Virat-Amruta scenes were good too.
Aaji could've been utilised much much better. Looking back, the first promo was much better. 'Stop talking bad about Ammu cause i know things about you and I can say things to people too.' Could've kept it as a warning rather than talking about the divorce and going overboard with it. This made her look particularly bad. The ema exposure to her... could've reduced it to a talk or one ep. [Have seen many movies about 'hiding info because of fear' themes and they always made no sense to me even as a kid.]
The MU is plain 'senseless'. They had perhaps one of the best convos I've seen b/w the leads. In 7 yrs of Abhigya, they never had a similar convo - perhaps the closest were some in ML track but even there Pragya had to hide things for the fear that his head may explode.
From there to take it to the mu is
.. in fact looking back i would have preferred Ammu actually said it to Aaji. in details - even if the only detail she knows is 'he is divorced. people mocked them. they had to come to Mumbai' - which allegedly is something he didn't even share with himself. (Ufff... the pain!!!!)
Badly handled Gautam too - dragged him to the engagement, where as he could've been done away with much before if they had no intention of taking him to the wedding. The only 'desperation' he showed was to talk about Virat but none about setting up a meeting with him.
No point talking about the Ahujas. Virat also behaving like them proves what we have said before - the Ahujas are enough to pull this show down. Some 'Dhokka' he is going through in his imagined 'love'!!!
